Australian Masters Athletics Championships 2017 Darwin
Next event on the horizon is the Australian Masters Athletics Championships in Darwin. Events on consecutive days commencing June 9th are: 10000m ; 1500m ; 5000m ; 8000m XC.
I'll allow a week or so to recovery from this virus (whatever it is) and take things day by day. Working back from the Championships the usual full ten day taper will be preceded by some high volume weeks peaking at 140km+. I should be able to slot in three good weeks of training by then.
Too early to think about sessions. I'll be looking to take the same approach with 600m intervals that feed into the 1500m and the 5000m. The longer events will take care of themselves and some other sessions or races to support that.
Track is conveniently located near the airport and the entries are flooding in with a couple of days to go.
